1987 Opel Kadett Club review from Netherlands
"My first car.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There were some major rust spots in the wheel arches and on the floor, and minor rust spots almost everywhere.
Clutch cable broke at 280.000 km.
General comments?
My first car, so I have only good memories! I got it even before I got my license, and it drove great! The only problem was rust, which was appearing everywhere. I drove this car for one year and a half, after which I got my dad's old Renault 19.
Now, five years later, I am driving a Mercedes E-Class, but sometimes I still miss my old Opel Kadett...
